The opening of a service of diagnosis of solar radiation, attached to the Station of Atmospheric Studies in Camagüey, adds a new achievement of the Provincial Meteorological Centre to the scientific work carried out in this central portion of Cuba.

We are talking here about a website, one-of-a-kind centre in Cuba present in the Internet for all users at http://www.lidar.camaguey.cu; said young webmaster Teresita Hernández.

This service of diagnosis of solar radiation in Camagüey, has gathered historical data about the most recent observations and about the meteorological variables.
